This review critically examines "Ugly Ducklings: A National Campaign to Reduce Bullying and Harassment of LGBTQ Youth" through a DVD and educator's guidebook. The "Ugly Ducklings" Community Action Kit has two parts: (1) a documentary about the harassment of lesbian youth and (2) short dialogues with "Ugly Ducklings" cast members, parents, lesbian teens, and others. The guidebook is divided into three broad areas: Educators, Parents, and Youth, with additional information on teen suicide risk and prevention.
